This paper is a continuation of a previous one [the author, Sib. Mat. Zh. 30, No. 2, 61-72 (1989; Zbl 0705.22005)] and some of its results were already announced by the author [Dokl. Akad. Nauk SSSR 239, 1033-1036 (1978; Zbl 0409.57042)]. For a plesiocompact homogeneous space \(G/H\) associated to the simply connected Lie group \(G\), the author constructs two locally trivial smooth fibrations, namely \(M_ c(=\hbox{fiber})\to M'(=\hbox{total space})\to M_ a(=\hbox{base space})\), where \(M'=G/H'\) is also plesiocompact and a covering space of \(M\) with a finite number of sheets, \(H'\subset H\) is a subgroup of finite index, \(\pi_ i(M_ a)=\{0\}\), \(i\geq 2\), and \(M_ r(=\hbox{fiber})\to M_ a(=\hbox{total space})\to M_ s(=\hbox{base space})\), where \(M_ r\) is a compact solvmanifold and \(M_ s\) is diffeomorphic to a locally symmetric space of negative curvature and of finite volume. It seems that these constructions were previously performed only for compact homogeneous space. Some basic properties of these fibrations are pointed out. Finally, the fundamental groups of plesiocompact homogeneous spaces are studied.
